Jason Kander, a former Army Captain and Secretary of State from Missouri, started Let America Vote to fight back against proposals across the country that make it harder for eligible voters to exercise their constitutional right to cast a ballot. Whether it’s extreme identification requirements, questionable purges of voter rolls, voter intimidation, new and extreme voter registration processes, or anything that makes voting harder, Let America Vote will be there to lead the way against it. Through grassroots organizing, Let America Vote will play a crucial role among the existing network of organizations fighting for voting rights.

Jason has said that New Hampshire has become the symbol of the ever-evolving fight over attempts to tighten state voter eligibility laws. Since President Trump falsely claimed that "bus loads" of Massachusetts residents illegally voted in New Hampshire in 2016, the Republican-controlled state legislature has attempted to complicate the voting process and discourage eligible Granite Staters from voting. Passed last year, SB3 disproportionately impacts individuals who move often and could potentially result in government officials knocking on the doors of voters to question them after they register to vote. Even more extreme voter suppression bills, HB 1264 & HB 372, are currently making their way through the legislature. These bills explicitly target college students, and would effectively impose a post-election poll tax on students trying to participate in the democratic process. If we don’t fight back, more voter suppression laws like these will pass, resulting in the disenfranchisement of more and more Granite State voters.
